[FOSSi Dial-Up] Mohamed Shalan - OpenLane, A Digital ASIC Flow for SkyWater 130nm Open PDK

Unlike the wider software world, Electronic Design Automation (EDA) open-source landscape has been fragmented for a long time, requiring significant effort and knowledge in a variety of disciplines to assemble a working ASIC flow. This has changed with projects such as Qflow and OpenROAD that aim at developing open-source toolchain for digital layout generation from RTL. OpenLane is an automated RTL to GDSII flow based on available opensource EDA tools configured/tuned for the SkyWater 130nm PDK. OpenLane main objective is to generate a clean layout from RTL designs in less than 24-hours with zero human interventions. OpenLane has been used, successfully, to tape-out a family of test chips (striVe). This is the second episode of FOSSi Dial-Up. FOSSi Dial-Up is an online event series by the Free and Open Source Silicon Foundation. Head over to https://fossi-foundation.org/dial-up/ for a list of talks.
